Attach blog to node - unusual configuration
innovafire - March 6, 2009 - 05:04
I have a project I am working on where I need to configure blogs in an unusual way.
I would like each member of the site to be able to create a page on a topic, and I want each of those pages to have their own related blog. Users can make other pages on other topics as well, each of which can have their own blogs specifically attached to those pages.
I hope this is clear. Does anyone know how to accomplish this?

A couple of options
Check out the Author Taxonomy module -- could this be adapted to your needs?
Alternatively, you could try using Drupal's taxonomy for the topics, assigning users to roles which would be responsible for the topics, and then using the Taxonomy Access module to restrict creating/editing access to the various topics. The Apply for Role module might be useful too.
The only downside with the latter approach is that Taxonomy Access is still in dev. It seems stable enough to me, but it hasn't been updated for a few months (check out http://drupal.org/node/304204).
